The Brockport Symphony Orchestra will present its virtual spring concert, “A Celebration of Latin American Music,” on Sunday, May 23, at 7 p.m. The link to view the concert will be posted on the orchestra’s Facebook page (www.facebook.com/BrockportSymphony) and website (www.brockportsymphony.org) one hour prior to the time of the concert. The virtual concert is free, and donations for the Brockport Food Shelf and the orchestra will be gratefully accepted online. Directed by Jonathan Allentoff, this concert will feature all new performances with guitar soloist Dr. Sungmin Shin.
A graduate of the Eastman School of Music and the University of Southern California and alumnus of the Aspen Music Festival and School, Dr. Shin serves on the faculty at The University at Buffalo, Rochester Institute of Technology, and Guitar Workshop Plus. He is the director of the Penfield Guitar School and performs with the internationally acclaimed guitar ensemble Tantalus Quartet and the Rochester-based contemporary quintet fivebyfive.
The program includes introductory remarks by Brockport Mayor Margay Blackman, and the orchestra is dedicating the concert in loving memory of Director Emeritus, Dr. William Hullfish.
